I'm enjoying this build very much. I employ a very similar natural filtration method on a large system as well. If you perhaps have the chance to locate my thread called "My Sharks in HD" i would enjoy hearing your feedback!
The thread was started perhaps 2 years ago, and they system has evolved, and I continues to evolve every day.
There are many videos I've posted with some more recent covering the many refugia.

Yes certainly

Thank you! I enjoy the micro fauna just as much as the macro! Perhaps even more.

The mud you are using is local Thai mud? Has it been processed to check or eliminate any dissolved organics that may bring nutrients into your tank?
I'm envious of the local availability of such mud, plants, fish etc.

Continued luck with your build!

Not so sure Mr President, as your tank is truly amazing and has inspired people from all walks of life , mine is a bit unorthodox
